Current development

Dwg Writer

• AC1014
  • Produces a valid file but some entities are missing in the model.
• AC1015
  • This version depens on the implementation of VP_ENT_HDR to work properly with the different Viewports
• AC1018 - MOST STABLE - RECOMENDED
• AC1021 - NOT IMPLEMENTED
  • This is a particular and isolated DWG version, it uses a different compression system and file distribution, due this difficulties, this version will not be implemented any time soon.
• AC1024 - STABLE
• AC1027 - NOT IMPLEMENTED
• AC1032 - STABLE

Code Example

public static void Main()
{
	string path = "sample.dwg";
	CadDocument doc = DwgReader.Read(path, onNotification);
}

// Process a notification form the reader
private static void onNotification(object sender, NotificationEventArgs e)
{
	Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
}
